Talk about straight outta left field. According to Newsday, Roger Clemens and his former trainer Brian McNamee had a phone conversation. I don’t know if the conversation went like this, but I’m amazed that they spoke at all. If I was Clemens and I was lying about steroid use denying McNamee’s claims, the only time I’d talk to him would be in court. From Newsday:

In a surprising twist to their public war of words, Roger Clemens and his former trainer, Brian McNamee, spoke by telephone Friday night, Newsday has learned. It was their first contact since the Mitchell Report was released Dec. 13, and a person close to the situation described the hourlong conversation between the longtime friends as “emotional.”

Roger had an hour long, emotional talk with another man? Andy Pettitte is gonna be upset.
